My husband is amazing

I have been majorly overwhelmed here lately. So much so that I have passed the baton to my husband in dealing with the behavioral issue at school. My amazing husband wrote our liaison at the school. He did a better job than I possibly could have. He was clear and concise without sounding angry. I just wanted to share with all of you how very lucky I feel right now.

The situation I called you about is Sam's escalating negative behavior. He is having a problem on the bus, in the classroom and at home. His physicalaggression is getting worse and we are looking into getting help in the home for Sam. My wife and I are concerned about the behavior chart for the classroom. He got marked down for not turning in the signed chart (our fault), not having his name on his paper, as well as the whole classroom being disruptive. I understand he is being treated as all the other students are being treated but he is still a special needs student. If this system worked for Sam I would support it. However, the increased trouble Sam is having keeping himself under control tells me otherwise. We would like to meet with Ms. * about Sam's issues but we would like the support of the whole team who is working with Sam. Please let me know how to arrange this. The best way to reach me is by phone after 3:00 P.M.

Thank you,

He did such a wonderful thing not just for Sammy but for me. He took the reigns and helped me feel so much less stressed. I needed this. When the divorce statistics are so high for families of special needs children, I feel blessed to have him in my corner. Tell me about the people in your corner.
